router. The switch fabric allows high-priority traffic from any Packet Forwarding Engine
to an egress Packet Forwarding Engine to be given preferential treatment over low-priority
traffic from any other Packet Forwarding Engine. The Packet Forwarding Engine on the
target T640 router forwards the packet to the destination PIC and interface.
The switch fabric can forward up to 3 Gpps. The maximum aggregate throughput rate
for the TX Matrix router is 2.56 Tbps (full duplex). Figure 6 on page 13 illustrates the
switch fabric architecture.
